Professional Learning to Support Student Mental Health within Tier 2
Recorded Webinar

Description:
National data trends indicate symptoms of anxiety and depression have significantly increased over the past five years. It is important for school staff to support mental health symptoms because they may manifest as school avoidance or other attendance issues, physical complaints, disruptive behavior, and difficulty engaging in classroom and extracurricular activities. In Spring 2025, we launched a survey to understand the mental health training interests and needs of educators across the state. This webinar presents the results of the mental health interest survey and an overview of training opportunities developed in direct response.
